welcome back, you filthy Exiles. So, this is the build update day one. So, so far, we're doing pretty well. I managed to get my Emperor's Vigilance, but if you couldn't get your Emperor's Vigilance yet, then I've put in the PO different Shields that you could use to sub it out for if you just save up a little bit of currency. Currently, I'm setting around what was my delve depth. Have a look. So, I'm sitting around depth 60 and just progressing down to Dell. I had to get some sleep 'cause pretty tired. And mapwise, like I'm seamlessly clearing through Maps. So, let's take a quick run through maps and I'll show you what I mean. Okay, so as you can see, it pretty easily wrecks through everything at the moment and I'll progress through and push it further and further in line with the PS that I put up earlier. So yes, League starts been really good. I did have one D dropped during my League.

start run and also if you haven't been doing it using shipping is a great way to get early five and six links. I actually got a six link by act N I think from memory. So yeah, basically Builds on on par with where it should be. It's actually doing significantly better. We're currently sitting on overlap damage of about 1.3 mil on hit and yeah, we're doing quite a bit of damage and it's working really well. We have C, we've got um glancing blood, but we need to fix it up. 36,000 armor. The defenses are a touch lower than what I want them to be, but I'll fix that up as I go. But as you can see, I'm not really running into any bottlenecks with um with dying too easily and things like that. Now health is uh is picking up as well and Mana there are no Mana problems in the build either. So I've managed to fix that. But anyway, let's quickly talk through the build and I'll run you through.

everything you need to know. Okay, first thing is gear. So basically I capped out my resistances, but definitely using shaper has been really useful. So amulet, I've got a lot of health, resistances, and armor on my amulet. Sorry, uh, amulet. I managed to shaper in an amulet with crit multi-enchant. So I've already switched to crit multi-enchants in my build. And then more health and more damage. Emperor's vigilance, obviously this is the best shield. I have 20% of this. What I'm noticing is the multiplicative is huge. Every time I buff it up, it goes up a little more. So we're at like 71.7 thousand on the tooltip without even having hit any buffs or anything like that into it. Um, I can't do war banner yet, but the damage just goes over 149,000k currently. Uh, prismatic eclipse, which is like, as I said, a 1C item. Uh, Emperor vigilance is going down in price too.

there should be no excuses. Switch that out. I got my Tanzanite for 2C, but it's now 1C, so Dirt Cheap item, uh, rings. And this, this is giving me my Onslaught and adrenaline and a heap of attack speed as well and leech. And then my rings literally just got like resistance. Rings wherever I could so I could cap out my resistance and get physical damage on hit as well to basically push up my physical damage. Uh, my six-link chest I managed to just get from, so I got one six-link from Shipping. I sold it for like 36 chaos and then I bought this for 32 K. These are like pretty cheap now in the market so they might be going up though but yeah. Um, this was just a really good pickup. Um, and then my belt is just like any old ratchet belt with resistances again shipping is really good to get items really early and then my boots again I ship my boots in we're getting a trend here use shipping shipping is fantastic in the game now.

the in the in the Cur City Center and then FL I've literally just got Quicksilver Diamond to get my crit up. I've got my um my Bassel FL with some crit on it and also my granite FL so there's no optimization here whatsoever so it's pretty peace together but it's working really well in delve and mapping and everything else so yeah that's it for gear. Now as far as gem setups in the helm I've got assassin's Mark with Mark on hit Clarity on arrogance so this is handling all my Mana W so basically my skill costs like 21 Mana but I'm regenerating at a significantly better pitch so I've got like uh 120 leech rate and 37 Mana regenerate on uh every second so um outperforming my mana burn um in my shield I've got determination flesh and stone blood and steain in my sword I've got Herald of Purity and I have open three open sockets in the build and I'm probably going to go retaliation configuration on that basis.

uh, then in my chest, I've got Shield Crush. I have mainly physical damage, Impale, increased critical strikes 'cause I switched to crit, and remove precise technique, and then multi-strike and brutality. And they're all like level 18, so they're not even upgraded yet. Uh, and then in my gloves, I've got automation, Molten Shell, Blood Rage, and Phase Run. And then in my boots, I've got War Banner, Shield Charge, and LIF tap. War Banner is super powerful. Like, it is fantastic when you're taking anything down. I basically just, like, few hit everything with this build. It's really good. I'm actually really enjoying this. I was glad I played this on League start. Okay, skill tree. So the PO will be in the description below. So I went up and I took the attack speed early node, uh, node early, sorry. And then I got Born to Fight, Heart of the Warrior, Versatility. I came down and got my Art of Gladiator Defiance. And then I picked up Spirit of War and my increased Mana reservation.

efficiency then you come down here. I want to grab all these nodes in here and then basically get savagery and vigor. And then you want to grab your merciless skewering node with the 10% chance to increase the number of imp Pals on enemies. And then you'll come back down. And then I basically went and I got my mark for death and my uh frenzy charge on hits so I can sustain frenzy charges in boss fights. Uh but you would also if you're still running precise technique and you're not switched to crit yet you'll be running precise technique here. But since I've despec out of that. And then basically you come back across the tree and you pick up your champion of the cause dismembering up to bloodless. Then I've picked up cannibalistic right to deal with my manicos even a little further. And then aggressive Bastion. And because I've got my Emperor's vigilance. I've got my crit multiply by 10 um energy shield on the shield. And then we

come up and we get stamina. We get barbarism. I picked up Hardy for extra regeneration so I get about 495 uh life regeneration per second so far. And then disbaling with extra crit multi against bosses for the ascendancy. Pretty easy stuff so I fully ascended aaro was nothing to this build. I basically just B aaro was basically like a twig in a wind and just fell over as soon as uh as soon as I blew a little bit of a gust. But I basically take undeniable untiring second then I got unflinching so I could get endurance charges to deal with elemental damage and then Unstoppable was my last Ascend see my Uber lab also just for a quick run through in the uh in the PO. So basically soul andaris is what you need. Sol tuah as well power charges are coming from the Assassin's mark on hit frenzy charges are coming from this node down here so 10% chance to gain frenzy charges when you kill a marked or hit

marked enemy and also they're coming from blood rage. Endurance charges come from unflinching on the ascendency. Onslaught and adrenaline are coming from the gloves which is tanui uh these here so we get both those attributes for th off those gloves. Nearby enemies 10 cuz that's realistic. Have you been hit recently? Yep uh I always like to play in Blood stance but if you don't want to be in blood St you can change that. Your DPS obviously drops that's just how flesh and Stone Works and blood and Sand Works uh. Melee distance is around about one that's the only change in the rest of the whole tree and then guardian and Pinnacle boss damage as well so no funky stuff in the tree okay. So I thought this quick update would help anyone who's sort of running into any walls with the build or anything like that so far build Works absolutely amazingly. I think a bunch of guys on the twitch and whatnot and Discord have been running it too not having any issues or

anything like that um. But yeah, if you've got any questions, feel free to post them down in the um, the comments below, and I'll try and get to them as quickly as I can. But I am just enjoying playing the league 'cause the league is really, really good. Anyway, I'll see you guys later and have a good one.
